Notes

After watching Wicked last Wednesday with Wayne Young, I realized that
I'd been missing out on so much by not watching more musicals in this
city.

I love showtunes. There's just something magical about the way people
sing and dance and tell stories. I love the way songs foreshadow each
other and are reprised. I love the structure of the songs, building to
a crescendo or thrilling me with their depths.

And watching the musical was so much better than just listening to the
music on Internet radio! Now, listening to the music, I can see the
production in my mind's eye. I get goosebumps remembering Elphaba's
songs "Defying Gravity" and "No Good Deed".

I can't wait for the next musical. Maybe I'll pick up an appreciation
for opera along the way...

Are you passionate about technology? Do you thrive on making a
difference in people's lives with your passion for technology? Do you
get confused sideways looks with raised eyebrows when telling people
that you are a Technology Evangelist? If so, GNoTECon is the event for
you. It is the industry's first conference to discuss technology
evangelism!

It would be *SO* wonderful to meet all of these evangelists. Guy Kawasaki! *The* Guy Kawasaki! Squeeeeeeeee...

I've e-mailed my supervisor to ask if I can take the final exam early. I'll move heaven and earth to be there. And you know me, I'll make a splash somehow.

I feel a little like Peter Pan. If you believe in my technology
evangelism, clap your hands and help me make this happen!

So, does anyone know anyone in Santa Clara with whom I can stay?
